Determination of Fiber Direction in High Angular Resolution Diffusion Images using Spherical Harmonics Functions and Wiener Filter
Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) MRI is a noninvasive imaging method of the cerebral tissues whose fibers directions are not evaluated correctly in the regions of the crossing fibers. For the same reason the high angular resolution diffusion images (HARDI) are used for estimation of the fiber direction in each voxel. One of the main methods to specify the direction of fibers is usage of the spher...
متن کاملDiffusion Tensor Imaging with HighlY constrained backPRojection (HYPR)
Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) and other DW imaging methods are typically applied using echo-planar imaging (EPI) methods, which are highly efficient and insensitive to motion, but are prone to significant artifacts including image distortion, blurring and ghosting. Conversely, diffusion-weighted projection reconstruction imaging (DW-PRI) methods [1-4] demonstrate significantly reduced image ar...
متن کاملMethods to Improve Fiber Reconstruction at DTI-Based Tractography in the Area of Brain Tumor: Case Illustration and Literature Review
Background and Aim: DTI-based tractography could help us to visualize the spatial relation of fiber tracts to brain lesions. Several factors may interfere with the procedure of diffusion-based tractography, especially in brain tumors. The aim of the current study is to discuss several solutions to improve the procedure of fiber reconstruction adjacent or inside brain lesions. Illustrative cases...
متن کاملInvestigating the uncertainty in multi-fiber estimation in High Angular Resolution Diffusion Imaging
In this paper, we investigated the reconstruction accuracy and information uncertainty in multi-fiber estimation to better understand the tradeoff between scanning time and angular precision in High Angular Resolution Diffusion Imaging (HARDI). Reconstruction accuracy was measured using the Kullback-Leibler divergence (sKL) on the orientation density functions (ODFs) first in simulations with v...
متن کاملSpatial-Angular Sparse Coding for HARDI
High angular resolution diffusion imaging (HARDI) can produce better estimates of fiber orientation and richer sets of features for disease classification than diffusion tensor imaging. However, existing HARDI reconstruction algorithms require a large number of gradient directions, making the acquisition time too long to be clinically viable. State-of-the-art compressed sensing methods can redu...
